Fodor's Expert Review Cúrate
$$$
Downtown Asheville
Spanish
Fodor's Choice
If you have the blahs, Cúrate, with its extraordinary, authentic tapas and fun atmosphere, is the cure. The nationally known chef-owner, Katie Button, showcases the flavors of Spain in about four dozen small plates (the plates themselves are locally made pottery), with special attention to cured Iberian ham dishes and seafood items such as octopus and calamari. Also wonderful: the creamy chilled gazpacho and berenjenas la taberna (fried eggplant drizzled with mountain honey). Cúrate expanded into space next door in 2017.
